[QUOTE="NewRenoFarmsInKY, post: 1816067, member: 32426"] [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_4340.jpeg"]33997[/ATTACH] Well an update to my post of a couple of months ago… I did go baler shopping and decided after pricing out balers at my usual dealer that I just couldn’t afford one. Historically they’ve treated me right and I always try to give them my business. Then a month ago my old bush hog gave up the ghost so I was shopping for a rotary mower. The story is a bit too long to post but I stopped back by my preferred dealer and felt that the guy wasn’t being honest about a demo bush hog they had, left a bad taste in my mouth. So…. I stopped at a dealer I hadn’t used before, and talked with the sales manager (whom I was in the FFA with over 25 years ago), and made a deal on a mower. Just for the heck of it I priced out a baler, trading in my old one, exactly like the one I looked at from my usual dealer. Was able to buy one for 7k less than my first quote. So I said I’d take it. My first dealer said there wasn’t any wiggle room on the price of their baler, absolutely none. When my new dealer delivered it yesterday I saw that this is the EXACT same baler I was looking at from my first dealer’s lot-still even had their decals 😂. It pays to shop around!!! Guess my former preferred dealer will remain my former preferred dealer, and I’ve got a new go-to place for my equipment needs! [/QUOTE]
